New Market Research Report: Wearable Payments: Sizing the Opportunity

The wearable payments market is still very much in its infancy, with most companies in this space still experimenting with form factors and functionality. Apple has emerged as a frontrunner with its payments-capable Apple Watch, but it is far from the only high-profile company in this space. With the market in its current state it is far too early to call Apple's first-mover advantage decisive, and while this space is likely to see a lot of attention and investment in the coming years it is impossible to predict which companies will dominate.

Key Findings

* 25% of consumers globally possess a wearable device of any type (regardless of whether that device is capable of making payments).
* Features and pricing are the two most important factors driving purchases of wearable devices.
* China is the most immediately attractive market due to its sizable population and high proportion of potential early adopters.
